The Bengals have 5 weeks to activate him (before week 11) and another 3 weeks from that date to dress him (would be before week 14). Again, this is the Bengals. This is the 5-0 Bengals. An organization that is very non-progressive and one of the slowest to react to things like this.
I predict we don't see Burfict until week 12 against the Rams...at maybe the earliest.
I don;t understand what you mean by non-progressive.. just because they don;t activate him right away has nothing to do with being non-progressive.. and slow to react... so Michael Johnson got hurt in preseason.. did he sit for 2 to 4 games ? or did he start game 1? He started game one because they deemed him fit to play.
It has nothing to do with how progressive or reactionary a club is.. it has to do with where they view someone on a medical, recovery sense and when they feel they are ready to play and be productive for the team.... im sure also how we are doing as a club might factor into it.. if we are 6-0 they might not rush him back with risk to lose him for season...
